Forgot to mention in the proposal:
If you recursively have light-weight checkouts inside each other,
the real "name" (for .git/external/<name/ and for further submodule
configuration e.g. in .git/modules of the base repository)
should of course be the concatenation of the names in the .gitlink
files while going up to the base repository.

No need. Something like
> /home/user/.../linux
is crazy. Do you want to scan all of your home directory everytime this
lookup is needed? So "..." really only makes sense in front of the
relative path, but there, you also can leave it out.
